Complainant was called by a Publishers Clearing House Agent named Dave Sawyer who told him he had won 2.5 million dollars. To get the money he was told to go to Walmart and wire $550 to the Walmart in Weymouth, MA. After sending the money he was instructed to call 518-557-7291 to speak with a woman named Mrs. Vanessa Williams to let her know so they could arrange for the Prize Patrol to bring the money. He was also given the name of a lawyer named Dave Sawyer.

I have had two calls to my cell phone from Publishers Clearing House. Callers name is David Moore, Their phone number is 484-464-4842. On my caller ID and he gave me the number. Stated I won $9,5 million. I would receive $7000 a week until October this year. I think that is what he said. They wanted $950 upfront payment. Filing fee. Requested cash. Wired. Wanted me to get a senders form from Walmart. Once they got the money there would be people here at my house at 2:00. I know it is a scam. He gave me badge number 1825. I did not send any money. I wanted to report it so a senior would get scammed.

Someone calls and says they're from Publishers clearing house and you have won $13 million and a Mercedes. They tell you to call the number listed above and ask for John Malone and they say you have to pay the taxes on your winnings via prepaid card.

I received a phone call and was told I won the Publisher's Clearinghouse sweepstakes.  The caller asked if I had entered the sweepstakes and I said "No." He then asked if I shopped at Wal Mart.  I said "yes" and he said I was automatically entered. He said I should have received a letter in the mail. When I told him I needed to check my mail and asked for his name and phone number so I could call him back, he hung up on me.

I was called by a woman and man, Andrew Goldberg from Publishers Clearing House and told that I had won 1.5 million dollars & a Mercedes. My claim number was 950770155 and it would be delivered to Walmart. I was to go to Walmart and call them back as I needed to pay $155 in taxes. I should tell no one as once you do everyone is your friend and they will be after the money. They would call be back with further instructions later.

I received a telephone call today, November 17, 2016, from Frank Miller claiming to be Publishers Clearinghouse stating that he was their truck driver and that he had a 2016 Chevy Malibu and a check that I had won from Publishers Clearinghouse. I then had to call Mr. James King, General Manager, @ 876 488 1868 ext 1 and had to give my claim number. I called James and I verified my name and he asked for my address but I said, you should have my address. At that time James became very hostile. James said that I had won but I said that I hadn't participated in Publisher's Clearinghouse for months and he said I qualified from last Spring. James said that a Betty and a U S Marshall would be present when when I received my winnings. James stated that I would need to go to Kroger and get a money order for $395.00 and he would stay on the phone with me. Over the course of several telephone calls, my mother called Kroger who did have money orders and also the State Highway Patrol who was supposed to be the escort but the Highway Patrol did not have any record of the escort. I called James King, again, number was no longer in service. I called again and the person answering wouldn't say anything.

A man named Bobby Foster called and told me I had won PCH. I was told I was a second place winner and taking a Private jet to Columbus OH. Then I needed to take $500 cash to USPS put into Express envelope to send to Donna Manis 836 Center Street Asbula OH 44004 with postage charge of $22.95. This was for a fee and taxes. They have called been calling me more time than 27 times. They now are telling me that their manager stated I needed to send another $500 because it wasn't enough to cover the taxes. I asked why he couldn;t take it out of the $500,000 I had won and he said that our government state they need their taxes first. I got suspicous and then I called the ScamPulse.com and found out I had been scammed and too embarased to tell my family but want other s to know.

The person called and I did notice that it said "No Caller ID", otherwise I would not have answered. They said his name was "Joseph Kennedy", and said they wanted to know if I would be, "home today to receive the $2.5 million from publisher's clearing house".

He very carefully had me write down his name, the company, a "Prize confirmation #" along with the prize they were going to deliver today of, "$2.5 million, and a Perl White Mercedes 2016 E class". and then asked me to repeat everything he had told me to insure I had written it down. He then said he needed to ask me some questions to verify xyz. He asked if I was married or single, I decided that was pretty easy information to obtain, so I told him married. He then asked my age, at which time, I asked why they would need that. He abruptly hung up on me. I was crushed! :-).

Incidentally, within 5 minutes of that call I received a text from [email protected] saying (Wells Fargo: Your Debit Card is restricted. (No:my cell phone number) Visit wellsfargo.com-9.eklnmx.com/ and unlock it now. Of course I have no wells fargo account so it is obviously a scam as well. I suspect the two are connected.
